Inspections

Park N Play can coordinate playground and park inspections for you to ensure your new project is fully compliant with CSA standards. After the report is complete, you will be provided with a detailed report on the findings. This will include on-site measurements, photographs, and any identified potential hazards. Under CSA guidelines, hazards are classified in A, B, and C categories.

Our playground inspection process

After each installation, our team will conduct a thorough review to ensure CSA compliance. When it comes to the official CSA inspection, we outsource that to a third-party inspector.

This is done to ensure there is no conflict of interest and to make sure that you're getting a park that is as safe and compliant as possible.

However, if you're interested in getting an independent inspection done, we can put you in touch with the various third-party inspectors that we use and have found to be excellent at their craft.

Please fill out the contact form with your details and we would be happy to help.

The CSA playground inspection

The CSA playground inspection is a comprehensive inspection used to ensure play structures are compliant with the CSA standards.

The inspection and subsequent report will contain detailed measurements of the site, photographs to document the inspection and any safety hazards.

The inspection will be completed by a CPSI certified individual that reviews the design and installation to ensure it is compliant with the latest version of CSA Z614 standards.

Safety Hazard Key

Each safety hazard is categorized into three areas:

A: life-threatening or debilitating. This can include entanglement, structure failure, surfacing violations, etc.

B: Serious, non-disability injury. This can include crush and shear risks, sharp edges, etc.

C: May cause minor injury or equipment is not compliant with the latest CSA standards. This may be because the equipment complies with an earlier version of CSA Z614, lack of appropriate handrails, missing signage, etc.

Why don't you offer in-house inspections?

We do conduct internal inspections of all of our completed work to ensure CSA compliance. However, we don't perform the certified inspection ourselves, as we believe that could be a conflict of interest. We prefer to use third-party inspectors to ensure 100% compliance. This results in a better scenario for both us and you.

"We recently had Park N Play install a new playground and we couldn't be happier with the end result! The kids are having a blast and the new playground is full every recess. Bob, Dustin, and the rest of the installation team were such a pleasure to work with. They were patient and clear in their instructions, always willing to discuss and explain what was going on, and most importantly, they were just fun to work with. Our Sales rep, Shelley, made sure everything went smoothly. We are so happy with the final result. I am happy to speak positively about my experience with you to anyone who asks! Thanks Park N Play!"

"Park N Play and Danica were quick to respond, provided lots of follow-ups, and cared about our experience. This was the best communication I've ever had for a playground project, and it was just a small addition. I've spent over $100K on a playground before with competitors and never got this kind of service."

– Angela Magon, Abbotsford School District

"Thank you very much to you and your staff for an outstanding job on this project.  James, Josh, and Jaimie were exceptional to work with throughout the installation of the playground.  Their dedication to making everything 100% is refreshing to see.  The attention to detail on the install has been as good as any project that I have been involved in over the past 30 years. Great job!!  Please feel free to use me as a reference at any time."
